Begin by preparing your cucumber. Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, slice the cucumber lengthwise into thin strips. Aim for around 16 strips. Set aside to use as wraps for your roll.
Next, cut the salmon fillet into thin, long strips. Try to make them even for easy rolling.
Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and slice the avocado thinly. Each slice should be about 1/4 inch thick.
Take a cucumber strip and lay it flat on a clean surface. Spread a thin layer of cream cheese along the center of the strip.
Place a piece of salmon and a slice of avocado on top of the cream cheese layer.
Carefully roll the cucumber strip around the salmon and avocado to create a tight roll. The cream cheese will help seal the roll. Repeat the process until all ingredients are used up.
Sprinkle sesame seeds over the rolls for added flavor and texture.
Serve the rolls with soy sauce on the side. Garnish with wasabi paste and pickled ginger.
